Goals    

For the chapter members,

the organization's goal is to provide them with the most possible professional advancement opportunities available.  This includes getting them all information on conferences, workshops, internships, full-time employment, and scholarships.  It will be achieved by continuing to strengthen relationships with the national organizations, other university organizations, and companies.

For the university,

the organization's goal is to continue promoting all available resources not only to science and engineering students but to all current, past, and future students.  In order to do so, the chapter will continue its efforts on outreach to area students; make them aware of the benefits of college, UTEP, science, and engineering.  The chapter is also committed in supporting the university in all activities such as athletics and competitions.

For the community,

the organization's goal is based around "give back what you have been given.. and then some".  New programs will be created in order to reach more community members.  This includes going to area schools to interact with the students either by presentations, tutoring, or mentoring.  In addition to that, the organization will seek more ways to be of better service to the community be giving a helping hand to many community benefit programs/activities.
